Jupiter Ascending (2015)-Movie
Jupiter Ascending is a average yet visually amazing movie.When i say average i am still being a bit generous because i believe despite the fact that it is forgettable movie, still it is a result of handwork of creators.They organized everything perfectly for it but things didn’t worked according to …

Mother knows Best movie (1997)

Catch & Release DVD
I have just watched Catch & Release, a new romantic comedy movie starring my favorite actress Jennifer Garner. This story is pretty funny, but it gets boring, with the normal flavor formula being repeated over and over again. I tried to make myself love the movie, but …

Since I’ve always been fascinated with the mystery surrounding the Loch Ness monster, I didn’t hesitate to watch a movie about it.

Le Havre by Aki Kaurismaki (2011 film)

Wedding Crashers Movie
I recently watched the movie The Wedding Crashers with Vince Vaughan, Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams. It was a hilariouss storyline with parts that everyone can relate to but still with a few bizarre twists.

Gormenghast Movie
A very unusual british film about a noble family in a state of crisis. Gormenghast is the name of their enormous mansion. It’s a more artsy kind of film than I had first expected, with long takes and innovative camerawork. It also has some interesting aspects in the mood …
